Thank you very much, Dan. I'll give it a try today.

Subj: D-Link NIC DFE-530TX+

From: "Homer Price" <Homer.Price@acmecompfarm.com>

Dan, your advice worked. OS/2 Warp v4 now sees the card. Thanks a lot!
It took a month to finally get someone to give me a hand. Apparently,
DLink doesn't even know they have a problem with their drivers for the
card. All their tech support did to help me is send me the same drivers
that came on the diskette with the card.

I'm going to forward your instructions on to D Link tech support so the
next poor OS/2 soul doesn't get the shaft.

I'll apply the fix to my OS/2 Warp Connect setup next. I'm ready to move
on to the next step. I guess I should collect the latest FIXPACKS for
LAN issues on WARP 3 and 4. Anyone have a list of where and what fixes
for LAN/TCPIP I should apply?

What I would like to do is have the two WARP machine use the existing
win98 LAN. The win98 is running with the Internet connection feature
installed using a DSL line. What I would like is to use the TCPIP
bandwidth from the win98 iNet sharing to access the Internet from Warp 4
and Warp 3. Is this possible to do?

Now that TCP/IP 4.2 (or is it 4.21? -- the version included with Warp

use Injoy Firewall or other third-party software?

Currently using Injoy firewall/NAT on a WSeB system.

Go ahead and configure the built-in firewall, I want to watch.
Besides, I don't think it supports NAT or vpn.

The injoy product is worth every penny.

It supports both NAT and VPN, but there are a few
problems with the NAT support in that it requires
a "pool" of real IP addresses to use for the translation
and the "internal" to "real" mapping appears to be
a 1 to 1 mapping. (At least that's what I understood from
the documentation).

The other problem is the documentation.

But, as it turns out, that's what I *do* want to be able to do.

I got it figured out, though - although I can't explain why
the Win98 machine needs to have the "WORKGROUP" name 
associated with an IP address - but once I do that, all the
problems went away.......

No, as long as you don't need a NAT functionality. 
You may look also at SafeFire Firewall http://www.lgs.kiev.ua/

And is possible download sites for the correct software...

From: Alan Beagley <abeagley@datatone.com>

Well, I am about to get a cable modem connection to the Internet, with only
*one* dynamically assigned IP address, so the firewall features incorporated
into TCP/IP 4.1 and higher are not going to do what I need. So it looks as
though I do need to use third-party software.

Sergey or anybody else: What are the pros and cons of the InJoy Firewall
compared to the SafeFire Firewall. The cost is the same for my needs (for
5-user Pro version of Injoy Firewall or unlimited-user Gold version of
SafeFire Firewall). From my reading of the docs., the two products seem to do
the same thing -- or claim to.

    Not legally.
    You could check out eBay's auction site. There are regualarly copies
of Warp 3 and 4 for sale really cheap, $10 - $30. If possible, get warp
4; it has more going for it. Then get the current fixpaks; a lot of
problems have been taken care of over the years.

Subj: Font server

From: James Moe <sma.spam-not@rtd.com>

Hello,
    I recently came across a way (www.haynes97.freeserve.co.uk) to
automatically keep client system's printer drivers up to date. It uses
an obscure entry in the system registry to point the client to a server
and directory that has printer drivers. If they are newer, the client
updates its local drivers. It's really cool.
    That has little to do with my question, however.
    A comment about locating fonts showed up in the documentation
somewhere. I do not remember that exect phrasing but the implication was
that it is possible to set up a font server for clients to load fonts,
or allows the server to print fonts that are not loaded on the server
itself. Like I said, it was a brief, vague comment.

    Does anyone know if this is indeed possible? If so, how?

    Note: I know I could put all the font files on the server and have
the clients access them that way. The comment implied more capability
than that.

Subj: Warp 4 & NT Server

From: "David Lee" <david.lee*nospam*@pronexus.com>

Hello all,

Yes, I'm an OS/2 newbie, so please forgive my ignorance :)

I have DHCP set up, and have obtained a lease from our NT Server, but I
cannot for the life of me figure out where to actually log-on to the LAN. I
have installed TCP/IP, and NetBios for TCP/IP.

Is there a step-by-step guide somewhere that will tell me how to run a Warp

Thanks,

Subj: Linkup stopped working

From: "Lionel C. Abrahams" <abrahams@sparc.isl.net>

I had my Netscape, PMMail... started with Linkup which bring up
DOIP object if the connection is not established.  I removed 1
system from my internal lan, and decided to remove the lan
connection from that system as no longer needed.

After I did that, when I click on Netscape, it fails with an error
saying that LINKUP.EXE could not be started.  Using the utility
Chkdll, it says that Linkup does not load because it can not find
"tcpi32.dll".  That file should reside in x:\mptn\dll and it is not
there (but it is there in my systems still on the lan).

I re-installed MTPN and configured it with no adapter present.  I
reconfigured tcpip 4.1...but still no tcpi32.dll.  I tried copying
it from my other system, but this resulted in a frozen system as
those 2 systems are not at the same MPTN level.

How do I get the proper file installed?

    Yes, I know. I did not express myself clearly. I did not mean the

I found fixpak 40 to be unstable on my Warp 3 system, though I didn't have
a problem with the NIC that I use, rather the Adaptec device driver for
removable media.

Anyway, I gave up and installed fixpak 39 instead and have had a stable
machine since then.  Fixpak 39 has the Y2K fixes as well, so that may be an
option for you.

There should be a File & Print client object in the Network folder. 
Failing that, just go to an OS/2 command line and try the logon 
command:  logon <user_id> /d:<domain_name> /p:<password>

If you don't want to expose the password on the command line, use the 
line above as far as /p:.  A box will then appear, where you can enter
the password, without it being displayed.

You'll also have to make sure the server is listed in the RFCNAMES.LST
file (similar to the Windows LMHOSTS file).  To do this, run MPTS, 
click on NetBIOS over TCP/IP and click on edit, etc.

I have already posted my config files which do work, did you not see them?

Have you followed Lorne Sunley's advice?

You say PING works, so what doesn't. Does ping work with names or only with
IP addresses?

Have you setup your ISP's DNS for the other machines on your LAN?

1.0 Introduction


It's not very easy to run Warp when surrounded by Windows, particularly if 
your network is based on NT server and your peer's predominately also use 
Windows. Network administrators are quick to say "We don't support OS/2!". 
Peer's are unable to offer any advice. Your only reliable source is IBM, 
or if you're lucky, there's someone around that uses Warp also. 
Predominantly, Warp users turn to the Internet for guidance, and solutions 
to their problems. It can be frustrating, but if you look hard enough, you 
can solve most of the issues involving being compatible with Windows. 
The issues range from Network Operating Systems and network protocols to 
data file formats. These issues alone require herculean efforts for the 
average user. Even to the experienced OS/2 Power user, these problems can
be difficult. Hopefully, this document will solve some of the issues for 
an OS/2 user lost in a sea of Windows. 
  
Networking 

2.0 Introduction


OS/2 Warp has very excellent support for other networking operating 
systems (NOS) besides IBM LAN Server (or Warp Server), such as Novell and 
Banyan. Warp also supports a number of networking protocols. TCP/IP is the 
most popular these days, but Warp has NetBios (NetBEUI), NetBios over 
TCP/IP (TCPBEUI), IBM IEEE 802.2, Netware and Banyan. The most important 
feature of all this networking support is that the requester's execute 
concurrently. Meaning that you can run them all at the same time! 
In the present OS/2 Warp architecture, IBM refers to this networking
support as Multi-Protocol Transport Services. The support is provided by 
drivers called requester's. The requester's are specified in the 
config.sys file and loaded at boot. Network communication is provided to 
and from the requester's and protocol's using NDIS (Network Driver 
Interface Specification). OS/2 Warp version 4 and OS/2 Warp Connect ship 
with these requesters: IBM LAN, 3270 Emulation, Netware, IBM TCP/IP. These 
requester's also have their associated protocol drivers as described 
previously (TCP/IP, 802.2, etc.). Banyan supports networking in native 
OS/2 as well as DOS VDM's and WinOS2. 
The installation of MPTS will install a copy of the online book "Network 
Adapters and Protocol Service Guide". This book is located in the 
Assistance Folder inside the Information folder under Tasks. This book 
traverse's OS/2 Warp networking in detail.

2.1 Warp Connect vs. Warp 4.0 
OS/2 Warp Connect has separate requester's for LAN Server and Peer. Warp
Connect will only allow either the LAN Server requester or the Peer 
requester to be installed. This is because they both share the same file 
name and directory structure. 
  
OS/2 Warp 4 combines the LAN Server requester and the Peer requester into 
one requester. Warp 4 also shipped with DHCP, whereas Warp Connect had 
this software added via a fixpack. Warp 4 TCP/IP stack is newer than Warp 
Connect's. However, fixpacks will bring Warp Connect's TCP/IP stack to par 
with Warp 4.

As a final note, some users claim that Connect's Peer client is superior 
to Warp 4's. However, I have seen no evidence or documentation to support 
these claims.

Networking Interoperability: Windows 

3.0 Introduction 
This passage will help you set up the OS/2 Warp client to be compatible 
with Windows. Microsoft has changed little tidbits of LAN Manager 
operating characteristics with the release of NT 4.0 and Win95. Some of 
the default settings shipped with these products can and will cause 
confusion and frustration for the OS/2 user. 
You will need to install IBM Peer for OS/2 to interoperate with a 
Microsoft Network. The OS/2 Warp client is very easy to setup to 
interoperate with a Microsoft Network if you know the tricks involved. 
OS/2 Warp 4 will install the "File and Print Client Guide" when Peer is 
installed which incorporate's a brief section on interoperability with 
Microsoft Networks. Literature is spread throughout IBM, some docs at PSP, 
some at Raleigh, some here and there on the net. 
The three protocols generally needed to interoperate with Microsoft 
Network's are TCP/IP, NetBios, and NetBios over TCP/IP. The NetBios 
protocol is used locally on a subnet because it contains no routing
information. This also means that NetBios cannot see past a router without 
help. NetBios over TCP/IP can see past a router and this protocol is 
generally used at corporate sites where large segmented networks are the 
norm as shown in figure 1.

    Figure 1
      
3.1 Windows NT 
Microsoft has strayed once again from networking standards in their 
proprietary implementation of domain registration. What does this hack on 
networking standards mean to an OS/2 user? It means that OS/2 Warp clients 
cannot logon to NT domains through a router. This also will cause problems 
for products from other vendors as well. Microsoft has a long way to go 
before they are an Enterprise NOS. 
Desipte Microsoft efforts to keep Warp off an NT server, an OS/2 Warp 
client can take advantage of Microsoft Network in one of two ways. The
Warp client can logon to the NT domain or logon locally. However, browsing 
is severly limited on a Microsoft Network if the servers have been 
configured with the default setttings (more on this in a later section). 
Either method will achieve the desired results, to use the resources on a 
Windows NT server domain. One precaution, your local OS/2 Warp logon must 
exactly match the logon ID on the NT domain controller. In addition, NT 
server allows lower case in passwords whereas Warp does not. 
In a segmented network architecture where the OS/2 Warp client is 
seperated from the NT server via a router, NT domain authentication is 
impossible with the default configuration of the Warp client. IBM has 
described this issue in Technical Document #7775533. IBM Technical 
Document #3724433 describes some useful NT administrator tips. In order 
for the Warp client to be authenicated by the NT domain controller the IP 
address will have to be added to the RFCBCST.LST file. Other NT resources 
would be added to the RFCNAMES.LST file. These files may be updated using 
MPTS or a text editor may be used. After the RFC files have been modified,
the RFCADDR command can be run from an OS/2 window which will update the 
system and prevent the client from having to be restarted. 
3.1.1 Windows NT: WINS 
WINS (Windows Internet Name Service) is a proprietary implementation of a 
Domain Name Server and a NetBios Name Server (NBNS). This hack gives the 
appearance that WINS is a Dynamic Domain Name Server. However, since WINS 
in not really a DDNS, other network operating systems that are compliant 
with a DDNS will not operate properly. The other function of WINS is to 
provide NetBios computer name registration. Combined with the DHCP server 
option which passes out IP addresses, WINS will update the database with 
pointers to the DNS (this is the hack). 
OS/2 Warp clients can take advantage of the NT WINS NetBios Name Server. 
Your administrator or another peer can give you the IP address of the 
primary and backup WINS servers. If you are you using DHCP you can request 
these IP addresses and view them from the DHCP Monitor program. If the 
Warp client is separated from the WINS server via a router, the NetBios
over TCP/IP protocol is a must. Also the node type should be set to 
"H-NODE" when operating in a segmented network. Due to the implementation 
of DHCP in OS/2 Warp you will have to manually edit the protocol.ini and 
add the WINS IP addresses into the TCPBEUI section as follows:


[TCPBEUI_nif] 
DriverName = tcpbeui$ 
Bindings = PCNTND_nif 
NODETYPE = "H-Node" 
NBNSADDR = "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" 
NBNSBACKADDR = "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" 
OS2TRACEMASK = 0x0 
SESSIONS = 130


You will have to add the text "NBNSADDR=", and where the X's are, you 
would put the IP address of the WINS server. NBNSBACKADDR is the backup 
WINS server. 
  
The following are some useful DHCP options provided by the Microsoft DHCP 
server. These are the only options supported by Windows based DHCP clients 
(lease options 51,58 and 59 not included in Table 1).

    OptionOption NameDescription
    1Subnet MaskDefines the subnet mask for the client.
    3RouterDefines the default router IP address (gateway).
    6DNS ServersDefines the IP addresses of the domain name servers.
    15Domain NameDefines the domain name for the client.
    44WINS/NBNSDefines the IP address of the NetBios Name Servers.
    46WINS/NBT Node type: 1 = B node, 2 = P node, 4 = M node, 8= H node
    47NetBios scope IDDefines a text string for NetBios over TCP/IP scope

  Table 1


3.1.2 Windows: Browsing 


OS/2 clients are unable to browse available resources on Microsoft 
Networks due to a Lan Manager parameter called lmannounce. This parameter 
defines the response to Lan Manager 2.x browser broadcasts. The default 
response is to ignore these broadcasts. However, the net view command can 
show resources when the resource is specified as follows: "net view 
\\resource". If the command "net view" is used, nothing will show except 
your workstation or other OS/2 Servers/Workstations on your network. The
Window's servers and workstations will have to have their default settings 
changed as outlined below to enable browsing from OS/2.


Windows for Work Groups:


The parameter "lmannounce=yes" will have to be added in the [network] 
section of the system.ini file.


Windows 95: 


The parameter "LMAnnounce" is in located in Network settings under File 
and Print sharing properties.


Windows NT 4.0 Server: 


In Network settings, Services, Server, select the Make Browser Broadcasts 
to LAN Manager 2.x clients at the bottom of the dialog page.


Windows NT Workstation: 


Users will have to manually modify the Lmannounce entry in the registry. 
The entry is as follows: 
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters 




This setting will have to be changed from the default of 0 to 1. The 
regedt32.exe program will have to be used for the above procedure. 
Regedt32.exe is located in \WINNT\SYSTEM32.


3.2 Banyan Vines 
Banyan Vines support is installed using a Banyan provided install program 
called VCLIENT. Vclient will also modify your config.sys heavily. Do not 
run VCLIENT until you have installed your network adapter using MPTS and 
other networking protocols. 
If you are using OS/2 Warp 4.0 you will need a fixpack from Banyan. This 
fixpack consists of two files, VINES2-5.IFS and VINES2-6.IFS. Depending on 
what version of Banyan Vines server that your network is running will 
determine what file to use. VINES2-5 is for Vines version 5.x and VINES2-6 
if for Vines version 6.x. You will need to install one of these files 
before rebooting OS/2 after installation of Vines. Your machine will trap
on every boot until you install the needed file into the Vines 
subdirectory. 
The following is a real handy feature to get access to files for different 
OS's from the Banyan server. You can map your server (Z:\) drive in DOS, 
OS/2 or Win95/NT by using the setdrive command. By mapping the server 
drive to root will provide a hint to what OS's the server is setup to 
provide client connectivity with. Use the following procedure to 
accomplish this: 
  
1. Use the whatz command to find your Banyan server. 
2. Use the setdrive command, setdrive x: "blah@blah@myserver" /ROOT


This new drive mapping should contain several sub-directories such as 
OS/2, DOS and WIN32. You can also build vclient disks for OS/2 or copy 
files needed for DOS VDM's and WinOS2.


This is what the Banyan install program VCLIENT will do to your 
config.sys:

3.2.1 Banyan Vines: OS/2 DOS VDM Support


To get Banyan Vines support in DOS VDM's you will have to add this 
statement to your autoexec.bat: 
  
C:\VINES\BANSVC.COM

This program provides the Vines interface from a DOS VDM and WinOS2 to 
OS/2.
  
3.2.2 Banyan Vines: WinOS2 Support 
WinOS2 will also run Banyan Vines. You will have to modify this statement 
in your system.ini file: 


[boot] 
. 
. 
network.drv=d:\os2\mdos\winos2\system\vines.drv 
. 
. 


If you plan on using a Windows based mail program with Banyan, you will 
need some MS-DOS files. These files are usually the DLL's that contain the
interface to Vines. I know of a mail application that runs in Windows and 
that is LSMAIL or SharkMail. You can get these files (DLL's) by using the

3.3 Samba 
Jacco de Leeuw has created a fantastic web page containing information on 
how to setup and get connected using Samba. 


3.4 Peer in Win-OS/2


OS/2 is able to provide Peer services in Win-OS/2. By enabling IBM Peer 
for OS/2 in Win-OS/2, you can connect to network resources in File
Manager. In general, this makes Win-OS/2 network aware. However, two files 
are needed from the IBM Dos Lan Requestor services. These are NETAPI.DLL 
and PMSPL.DLL. If you have OS/2 Warp Server, the files are located on the 
CD under CID\CLIENT\DLS. 
Installation is easy and painless. Start Win-OS/2, open Win-OS/2 Setup 
from the Main Window, select Options, then select Change system settings, 
select IBM Peer for OS/2, then select OK. Win-OS/2 Setup will prompt for 
the Windows diskettes it needs (Insert your OS/2 Warp CD into the CD drive 
and point the location to \OS2IMAGE\DISK_W1, etc). The above mentioned 
files will need to handy also (NETAPI.DLL,PMSPL.DLL). 
Although this is pretty cool (IBM has some great Software Engineer's), 
I've noticed a performance hit in my Win-OS/2 sessions with IBM Peer for 
OS/2 enabled in Win-OS/2. This is due to the setup program modifying the 
system.ini with some new parameters, PSP and timer variables. I removed 
these from the [386enh] section without any problems and my performance 
was on par again.
 

Microsoft Exchange 4.0


4.0 What is it? 
Exchange is a Microsoft application that runs on a Windows server. 
Exchange provides e-mail and other services such as being able to setup 
meetings electronically. In order to use the Exchange service you must 
have the Exchange client installed or another client application that is 
compliant with the Exchange protocols.

4.1 Installation and Setup


The Exchange client's dwell on the Exchange Server CD. OS/2 will need the
WIN16 version of the client since Microsoft only supports Windows 
platforms. The WIN16 client will execute under WinOS2. Also on this CD is 
the Forms Designer package which has the 16 bit version of the MS Visual 
Basic Compiler. The Exchange 4.0 client will require at least fixpack 2 
from Microsoft for the Exhange 4.0 client to run properly under WinOS2. 
Microsoft is currently up to fixpack 4 for Exhange 4.0 and also states 
that only fixpack 2 is supported in WinOS2. OS/2 will also need to have 
TCP/IP and TCP/IP DOS support installed. Installation of the client is 
straight forward and hassle free. You will need information provided by 
your network administrator. This information will consist of the Exchange 
server name, and the name of your post office box. The install program 
will require that you reboot Windows after installation. After closing the 
WinOS2 session, use your favorite text editor and modify the file 
exchnge.ini. The file will be located in C:\OS2\MDOS\WINOS2. You will want 
to move the TCP/IP protocol statement in Rpc_Binding_Order to be the first 
protocol as shown below:
  
[Exchange Provider] 
Rpc_Binding_Order=ncacn_ip_tcp,ncacn_np,ncacn_spx,netbios,ncacn_vns_spp


The Exchange client is now ready to be run.


TIP1: Some users of Exchange (WIN16) will notice that some of the messages 
they receive do not display well or get a warning message with 
attachments. This is due to missing fonts in Win-OS/2 and the Exchange 
client. You can remedy this by locating a Windows machine and copying the 
fonts. Most fonts can be found in C:\WINNT\Fonts. True Type fonts end with 
an extension of TTF. Copy the fonts to a temporary sub-directory and start 
Win-OS/2, open Control Panel, then open Fonts and goto Add. Point the to 
the sub-directory where you just copied the fonts and select All then OK.
That's it, your done! 
TIP2: Choose the Aerial font for the Exchange client. MS Outlook defaults 
to this font and others will not know any difference. The default font in 
Exchange WIN16 is MS San Serif . This font does not display well for some 
reason in MS Outlook under Win95 and NT. 

Microsoft Office


MS Office for Windows 3.1 runs without problems in WinOS2 and is
compatible with Office 95. MS Office 97 is not compatible with either
software package. However, there exists a file converter for Word 6 that
will import Word 97 documents into Word 6. Also there is a patch for Word
97 that will allow saves to .DOC extensions instead of RTF (Rich Text
Format). There are no other Office 97 converter's available for MS Office
for Windows 3.1. Microsoft has released two new viewers for Windows 3.1,
one for Word97 and one for PowerPoint. Microsoft has a page which lists
all of the viewers and converters for MS Office.

Given that the HW router supports Stac, MS version of protocols, dial

Why would one opt for InJoy or any similar product ??

I'm a novice but would have to ask the same questionn....My Netgear
product is finnaly workinng in my network of 2 Win98 and 2  OS/2
machines and I really like the setup. It's a much better use of 
resources to have things like modems  and printers centrally located
andd shared in the network rather than the redundancy of these resources
at each station, and maintenace and security are added benefits. What
have I missed in going this way?

Are you getting a "Domain" logon screen? (It has three
fields to fill in, User, Password, and Domain name) or
are you getting a "Local" logon screen (only the first
two fields).

The "Local" logon screen requires the User ID and password
you specified when you installed your Requester client.

Subj: Networking Warp4 and Win98

From: glen@rockyhorror.Zkaroo.co.uk (Glen D)

Hi all,

First off, apologies if this question has been asked a thousand times 
before (I tried Deja but it's difficult to find exactly what I want).

I have two machines, one with Win98 on and the other with Win95 and 
Warp4.  I can view the Win98 machine using Win95 (so no hardware 
problems here) but I'm at a loss as to how to do the same using Warp4.

Here's what little snippets of info I've gleaned so far.

NetBUI (or NetBIOS) *must* be on each machine.  (I thought TCP/IP was 
all that Win98 needed.)

Both machine need to have the same user name and password.  (Are we 
referring to the name and password that Win98 asks for when it boots 
up?)

File and printer sharing needs to be installed.  (This much I gathered
myself, but are there any settings I should watch out for?)


If I've missed anything or made any wrong assumptions then I'd 
appreciate the advice.
TIA.

worked before, but now, when I log on, the drive letters of the network
resources are not mapped.  My adjacent workstation works, but this one

I am using InJoy gateway/firewall software beacause I already had an old

and I am in business.

I can also shut it down and reboot it in Linux or whatever when nobody
else needs to access the Internet through it.

The unix box is running Sanba in share mode
I use the exact same username/password for everything
It works from 98/95/3.11
I get the local logon prompt (two fields)

I asked because the OS/2 local logon prompt is
validated with the net.acc file that is on the OS/2
workstation. The only reason that the logon
would fail is if the ID and password used is
not in the local net.acc file.

The install of "File and Print Services client"
asks for the ID and password to use for administration
of the OS/2 machine.

Additional User ID's and passwords can be
maintained using the UPMACCTS program.

AFAIK the OS/2 client uppercases the ID and
password before sending them off to any other
SMB servers.

Subj: Re: HW routers Was: NAT/Firewall: InJoy or TCP/IP 4.2?

From: Bjarne Jensen <bj@fx.dk>

Hej Kristian

Let me give you some of my motivation for creating
and using InJoy Products.

I've been used to using hardware boxes for years
prior to creating InJoy. What I don't like about
hardware boxes, is that they all implement their
own operating system. Usually an OS that
is slow to work with, hard to update, hard to learn,
hard to monitor and boring to look at. Sure, they
are good for certain tasks, such as being put
in a corner to take care of link that never changes.
However, for value-added connectivity, such as VPNs, firewall
logging and administration, filtering I will refuse
to ever go back to one of these hardware boxes.

The cheapest of the hardware boxes I've dealt with has been
less than reliable and worse to work with than
even the most unstable software, so when comparing
prices, you should probably consider this fact as
well.

For $200 you might get a piece of hardware with a
stamp on the side and a lot of promissed functionalities,
but you certainly don't get the bells and whistles
that InJoy provides you (some you need and some you
don't - but it's there when you need it). We support
most MS protocols too and the Stac (compression) is
more likely to slow down communications with todays
bandwidths.

Regarding the InJoy Dialer, I enjoy to take that with me and
I always have it handy when I travel, or when I have
to try a dialer from some other PC. If I need to
install a new system, then the software can be copied
over the network or be installed from a floppy in a
matter of seconds. If my leased line breaks down, then
I know I can trust the InJoy Dialer to dial out
2 seconds after.. With the modular building blocks in InJoy,
new functionality is easy to plug in, not to mention
the ease of installing product fixes.

In the InJoy Firewall, I appreciate the monitoring
of activity (makes it easier to find wierdness,
before it turns critical), the log files and
accounting which is just written to the disk without
any hazzles. Again, new stuff such as IPSec, PPPoE
is installed by means of a simple plugin and with
OS/2 utilities such as IPTRACE, it just makes the
perfect box for hosting and firewalling.

And don't forget, if you have a problem with InJoy,
then support is just an e-mail away.

I think, for me, this is all about being in control
of the box I dedicate as my point of communications
and I don't want to have to go to the dusty hardware
box in the corner when either the hacker hits, when
I need to finetune the connectivity options or
when the connection experiences wierd problems.

In my company we have a hardware box with built-
in firewall and router capability, but I really
prefer running the InJoy Firewall, cause whenever
I need to change something, it's a 2 second operation
and I can immediately see the results of my changes,
as much functionality and control as possible is
brought to the surface.

And InJoy will only get better!

Novell is not required.  Can you access the server at all?  If yes, 
there are at least three different ways to map the drives.  If no, you
have some other problem that must be corrected first.

It worked fine when I as beta testing the Aurora package.

If I remember correctly I installed the MPTS code before
I installed the TCP/IP applications.

Make sure you have Java 1.1.7 or later and the latest
version of FI (1.2.5 I think).

Subj: Changing NIC in Warp 4 (Newbie)

From: David How <David@lanky.demon.co.uk>

I am wishing to change/Add a NIC in a working Warp 4 installation and
apologies in advance for the length.

I have a working vanilla installation of Warp 4 as part of a Triple boot
PC, Warp4/DosW95/linux. (No fixpacks applied yet)

The NIC Drivers (SMC8000.os2) do not load (SYS1201) and are out of step
with the NE2000 clone NIC (unsure of Manufacture see later). 

The Warp4 handbook page 76 suggests to me that the NIC drivers are
changed during 'Advanced Installation' i.e. use the three floppy disks.
This seams to be a little Over The Top and risks upsetting the
installation. 

Is there a way in which the NIC Drivers can be changed and configured
through the working installation, as per Windows. (i.e. Warp Desktop;
OS/2 System; System setup. 

I stopped writing this Thread last night when I had thought I had found
the answer for myself; having found Hardware Setup, Properties,
Detection levels. This has managed to detect the removal and
reinstallation of ISA Soundblaster 16 card however it has not detected
the original NIC or the two other NICs that I have tried to install. I
feel a little confuse by the function of 'Default' and 'Use System
restart only'

I am also a little confused by 'Device Driver Installation' window. The
supporting Help window says "Do not use this window to install drivers
supplied with the )s/2 4 diskettes ..." attempts to access the 'Device
Driver Pak. Vol.1 and selecting the DRIVER sub-directory results in the
message  "A profile control file could not be found .."

I have reached the stage of 'brain fad' and 'clumps of hair on the
floor'. Constructive help and guidance would be much appreciated.

(I am unsure of manufacture of the NIC. However the MAC Address is 00 00
24 20 7d f4 I haven't sorted out manufacture, let alone model. Is there
a Web site which contains this sort of information.)

NIC drivers can be changed through the MPTS object
in the "OS/2 System" -> "System Setup" folder. The object
may be called "Multi Protocol Transport Services"
or "MPTS Network Adapters and Protocol Services"
or just "MPTS" depending on the installation.

This program is used to change the network card
drivers and communications protocols installed
(TCP/IP NETBIOS etc).

Sometimes the "Eagle Technology NE2000 plus"
driver can be used with NE2000 clone cards.

Outside of that we'd have to know the chipset
used in the card to recommend a driver. The
chipset can usually be determined from the
legend on the card's chips.

If the chip has lettering like "RTL8019" 
that is a Realtek chipset network card and
the drivers are available at www.realtek.com.tw

Subj: Re: Changing NIC in Warp 4 (Newbie)

From: klcroxen@fas.harvard.edu (Kevin Croxen)

Since Warp 4 is installed, run MPTS, either from the 
System Setup folder or from a command line. 

Then indicate "configure adapters and protocols" ; 
you'll be able to delete your current adapter and 
add the drivers for your new one either from diskette 
or from a directory on your hard disk.

Of course, if you don't know the make of your NIC card, 
attempts to add the correct driver and get it running 
under OS/2 are pretty well doomed to failure. Since you 
have a triple-boot machine, what do the other 2 OS's 
believe the card is? Check the win95 "device manager" 
or the Linux bootup messages when the card is initialized.

If you can determine the manufacturer of your card, you'll 
find that most of them will have NDIS drivers that will load 
fine under OS/2. Even for those cards that are technically not 
supported under OS/2, you'll find that the manufacturer's web 
site will offer drivers for the ancient "Microsoft Lan 
Manager for OS/2" 

These drivers generally still function even on Warp 4.

Does InJoy support the concept of NO modems and 2 NIC's ? or 2 NIC's
and 1 Modem as the backup wan.

Hint ! Having ethernet based isp access hardware such as most xDSL
types etc. makes nifty features in "dialer only" products kinda
useless
 
Given that the above ( not the 2 NIC's, the stuff you wrote) is
correct, i would expect to see something like:
Plugin/Filter list

- ICQ
  Enables manual and/or automatic pat in order to enable direct 
  connects through InJoy's nat or - if pat is a std feature - doc's
  describing how to implement the stuff.

- NetMeeting	
  Whatever... if anything... to use it behind InJoys nat

- w95tracert	
  Enables traceroute through InJoys nat

- <sometool>	
  <some solution>


is that corerct ?

is the plugin facility public spec'ed ? In other words, can anybody
write the plugins using public libraries and doc ?

Subj: home networking - Qs re cables and hubs

From: JHB@jita.nospam.demon.co.uk (Jim Backus)

Two questions about home networking:

Q1  What is the difference between coaxial cable designed for thin 
Ethernet and a general purpose RF coaxial cable such as RG58c/u or 
RG223?  

The background to the question is that in the UK suppliers charge 
significantly more for Ethernet cable than for good quality RG58 
cable.  I know from my background as an electronics engineer with 
principally RF experience that coax has a characteristic impedance 
dependent on the distributed inductance and capacitance of the cable 
and that the velocity of propagation is also dependent on these 
characteristics.  The loss is dependent on frequency, cable size and 
the materials used in its construction.  One other characteristic is 
the screening effectiveness which is dependent on the screen 
construction.  Now Ethernet at 10 Mbps (cf RF at 10 MHz) seems a 
relatively undemanding application so why is Ethernet cable more 
expensive?

Q2  Any comments on the proposal below?

I currently have 3 PCs within a few feet of each other linked using 
coaxial cable running 10 Mbps Ethernet.  I'm considering expanding 
this to support more PCs in different parts of my home.  My intention 
was to use a number of 4 port hubs linked by coax with the PCs 
connected to the hubs using Cat 5 cable.  

BTW the coax I'm currently using is RG58 and it has given me no 
problems.

TIA

If it doesn't have to be a command line, you can use DHCPMON.EXE,
which has a drop-down which does this.

Both win98 and Warp use SMB and write to the Netbios API.  They can
run over Netbeui, TCP/IP (RFC 1001 1002), or IPX protocols -- or any
protocol which supports the Netbios API and SMB.  For a two machine LAN
Netbios/Netbeui would be the simplest to setup and provide the best
performance.

You can configure access without userids and passwords.  But if you
do use them, keep them in synch.

Check the entries in your net.cfg.  You also might try using mpts and
NDIS drivers rather than ODI drivers.  I have found NDIS to be a
bit more stable.

Subj: NEWBIE ------OS/2 Workstation Crashed....Suspect NIC

From: Trigger <triggers@uknow.com>

My building automation workstation crashed the other day. Tried to
reboot, system hangs on reboot. I have Lan Manager installed.

Message on bootup

PXE-M00: Initializing LanDesk Service Agent for 3C90X.

Then after about 30 seconds, I get 
"The file OS2KRNL is not acceptable."
"Insert a system diskett and restart the system"

How do you boot and get a list of boot sequence, like in DOS <F6>. I
need to determine if I am hanging from the NIC drivers

I ran a diagnostics program after booting to a floppy boot disk,
getting a error on the Lan card "EEPROM FAILURE"

Would this cause OS2 to hang on the boot?
The NIC is internal (built into MB). Installing a NIC is no problem,
but how do I re-configure Lan Manager to accept new card settings?
Will any new configuration be needed for SQL? 

BTW This is used for a building automation system. Running Lan
Manager, as stated before, and SQL

Thanks in advance for any help.

I run LinkSys PCI cards. The work well, have OS/2 drivers and are 
cheap than 3Com cards in general.

I've used the D-Link DFE-530TX and the Ovislink 8139TX cards
and both work well on uni-processer systems. The D-Link
driver seems to glitch on WSeB SMP systems.

    Really? The 3c90x (etherlink xl) PCI NICs have been most execellent
in these computers here.
    Which 3com do you have?
    Have you chacked IBM and 3com sites for "the latest?" 
    What leads you to believe the NIC is under-achieving?

    At the OS/2 blob press ALT-F2. It will show all the drivers as they
load.

    You need to re-write the EEPROM on the NIC. Somehow it got altered
during (or caused?) the crash. Troll the 3com site for drivers, BIOS
upgrades, configuration utilities.

Looks odd. Network drivers are loaded _after_ both kernel and IFS (file
system driver) are already loaded and operational...

You should probably try fixing filesystem on the boot drive. Boot from
maintenance floppies and run:

chkdsk c: /f

where c: is your boot partition drive letter (it may or may not actually
be C:). If you do not have a set of OS/2 maintenance floppy diskettes -
use installation floppies and push F3 - Command prompt as soon as this
appears on the screen, then proceed with chkdsk as above.

>How do you boot and get a list of boot sequence, like in DOS <F6>. I need
>to determine if I am hanging from the NIC drivers

At the very beginning of the OS/2 boot sequence, when "OS/2 ..." little
blob appears in the top left corner of the blank screen - push Alt-F2 and
watch the list of drivers loaded at the bottom line of the screen.

Yes, it could.

After getting your system booted, run MPTS.EXE program, select "Configure"
bitton, remove your old adapter, shut down the system, reboot into BIOS
setup, disable built-in NIC, switch off computer, install new NIC, boot
the system, run MPTS.EXE once again, add drivers for your new adapter, add
and configure protocols for it, shutdown & reboot again.

No.

Subj: Re: OS2 Lan Management tools for NT

From: "Roland Pinches" <Roland.Pinches@pmail.net>

OK, this may be a little drastic, but you could make a Warp Server e-Business
you DC, install a small amount of code on your NT servers to make them
additional servers to a Warp Server domain and then manage everything from a
Warp desktop! Using the IBM logon client for WinNT/95 would enable all users
to logon to the Warp Server DC.

The biggest benefit I can think of is that OS/2 comes with all the management
tools you need, where as NT requires the purchace of an expensive resource
kit. OS/2 also has direct access to LAN functions via Rexx, allowing you to
create custom scripts to help manage users (creating user accounts and
assigning logon assignments via the command line is MUCH quicker than using
the GUI).

Other than that I don't know of any tools that run under OS/2 that can manage
NT machines.

From: "Roland Pinches" <Roland.Pinches@pmail.net>

If you are after a viewer for OS/2 try PMVNC. It allows you to view
Windows/Linux + other O/S as if it were your local desktop. Unfortunately
there isn't currently an OS/2 VNC Server available, so you can only use OS/2
to view other O/S desktops :-(

I've used Netfinity and while it is ok over a LAN, if you try it over a slow
kilostream link (up to 64k/bps) it's a pig! VNC is very much quicker due to
the way it works.

Not sure of the location to download the software, but I can find it if
you're interested...

See if you have this file:

From: Alan Beagley <abeagley@optonline.net>

I have several 3Com NICs: 3C509B (ISA) and 3C589C (PCMCIA). The only
catch I know is that you have to use the 3Com configuration utility
freom DOS to turn off the PlugnDoSomethingWeird, and also make sure the
baud rate is no higher than 9600. At least, that is what I was told for
Warp Connect; that may no longer be necessary for Warp 4.

I also use the Intel 10/100 network interface built into my Asus
motherboard. Again no problem that I can tell.
